Fishing trips & Rates 

Inshore/nearshore - PALM BEACH COUNTY 

Fishing in Palm Beach County has a lot to offer both inshore and nearshore with its access to big pelagic species and diverse intracoastal region. On days with good weather, we can run offshore and catch mahi on fly or cruise the beach for snook and tarpon. If we stay inshore, there are plenty of big jacks and snooks along the seawalls and shorelines to explode on your mullet or topwater plug. Swamp to Sea also does night time snook and tarpon trips, a perfect way to get out of the Florida sun. If you want to catch some big fish that fight hard, this is the trip for you.
